how much tweaking was necessary to get to that point.
That's precisely why Finale should do a better job. I find that music
with lyrics requires at least twice as much tweaking, and probably even
more (in time), than instrumental music. And I confess that I've never
or rarely done anything with lyrics that I'm satisfied with - that
couldn't be improved if I could afford to spend more time on it. Whereas
I'm quite happy with instrumental pieces I've done. I was recently
offered 5 USD per page of finished music by an American publisher, for a
scholarly edition of vocal music. How much time can one spend tweaking
the spacing of the music and the text at that rate?
At $5/page, how much note entry can you do? You can make the same money
with less stress bagging groceries!
